8920B Specifications
Specifications describe the instrument’s warranted
performance and are valid over the entire operating/
environmental range unless otherwise noted.
Supplemental Characteristics are intended to provide
additional information useful in applying the instru-
ment by giving typical, but non-warranted, perform-
ance parameters. These characteristics are shown in
italics or labeled as “typical,” “usable to,” or “nominal.”
Note: The 8920B standard configuration and Options
006, 007, and 016 configurations can be ordered as a
variable attenuator and a fixed attenuator. For fixed
attenuators, see table below. For wider frequency and
power ranges, Option 055 has a mechanical variable
attenuator available.
Configuration Fixed Attenuator
Standard 14 dB
Option 006 6 dB
Option 007 0 dB
Option 016 16 dB
